Otondo and snake

Otondo-belarra, Stachys officinalis.CT Johansson-CC By SA

It is said to be locust weed to cure more than forty diseases, Stachys officinalis. Lakoizketa has also received the names serpent and betuna. It may also be called good to cure snake diseases such as snakes, snake, etc. Bitumen has its origin in the “betonics” used to denominate this plant in the languages of the Mediterranean environment, of course...

Locust, argoma or otonus herb (Ulex sp.) Does it come from your company? Both of them like the earth with silica acid. I have read that the bread crumb is also called a lobster. For the linguist who wants to work: there is nothing like a basket to heat the bread oven; the grasses of the lobster would match the wolf; the crumb of bread with the wolf... And in the courtship, the Ottoman herb is considered one of the best medicinal herbs, with which a millenary school has been built, “sells shelter and buy lobster weed” say the Italians. It also has other curious uses: to perfume tobacco you mixed your leaf, you put a necklace to protect yourself from bruises and ghosts, to scare away nightmares, you make yourself sneeze with the dust from dry leaves, you took it as a refreshing, edible infusion, you squeezed it and drank it in bed to not sleep. It was planted in the orchards and around convents, hermites and churches to protect itself from witches and demons. Why not sleep? I don't know better protection than sleep. For me, lack of sleep is the shortest path for devils. As another saying from the Italians says, we must ask the writer Munilla, “as well known as the otondo-herb” with his last book... With what he answers, perhaps we have to talk about the expression used by the Spaniards: they say that “it has as much virtue as the wolf’s grass” to explain good words or fulfilled for no one. Some people say that, instead of avoiding sleep, it makes it easier. Because I don't approach Munilla, I'd rather believe it.

A cure for many diseases. Transformed and guarded in mythic places of yesteryear, rival to spells, demons, nightmares. Remedy to sleep. Relief of headache. A friend to take him to his neck. Cakes of the same pasta, of lobster grass.

Are there walls?

Do you have a vegetable garden? As a child, the two orchards I've met at home had a wall. One on the lap and the other on one side. A good use of the walls will make the garden have a great benefit. It will create a shelter: it will be placed in the right place to shade, or to... [+]
